His absence is due to the fact he is a throbbing cunt.

eamon62.bsky.social•16 hours ago

🤔 Farage, the Dunce from Dulwich, has lost his moral compass AND can’t find his way to Parliament.

petetheref.bsky.social•14 hours ago

I missed the debate and now it seems the #BBC is failing to upload it on iPlayer, despite everything else being there.
What's going on?
Honestly, I don't trust the #BBC anymore.

Dislike Farage as I do, he was in Parliament today and put a question to Starmer.
How did you miss that?

bsky-sam.bsky.social•13 hours ago

What did he ask out of interest?

nickcud.bsky.social•13 hours ago

American mining contractors in Ukraine

Ah yes, the trickle-down defence strategy.

leeb0114.bsky.social•10 hours ago

Very weak bladders, that Reform lot!!!! 😉

malqpr69.bsky.social•17 hours ago

That's so he could head out in search of Sky to give him airtime as usual as his quitting renta gobshite self

tynegal.bsky.social•12 hours ago

Stop his pay.

wizardsnuggles.bsky.social•3 hours ago

Actually, I wouldn't mind if he goes missing permanently.

alanjstedman.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Has he got the Trots?

zbris.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Strong.

bsky-sam.bsky.social•13 hours ago

Anyone got an ice pick…?

pete-k.bsky.social•1 hour ago

Farage only turns up when he can get a soundbite.

So what does history tell us about Lord Haw-Haw... never has history been so relevant. We ignore it at our peril.

danyelleanthon.bsky.social•12 hours ago

Hello! (A vey sad) American here. I actually watched this on C-Span today. I learned a lot, I’m impressed with the back and forth. I have a somewhat silly question, purely out of curiosity. When a person would speak, the others would make a sound in response, I couldn’t tell what it was. Explain?

notontwitter.bsky.social•12 hours ago

Groans/moans of agreement/displeasure, insert as appropriate.
Clapping of hands is frowned upon in UK parliament. 🤷🏼‍♂️

danyelleanthon.bsky.social•12 hours ago

Thank you. I watched that…and I truly felt like the garbage younger sister of a much smarter, more respectful country. I didn’t always feel this way. I do now, and it is distressing.

notontwitter.bsky.social•12 hours ago

Don't feel too bad. They're regularly compared to a rowdy kindergarten.

He’s so awful and embarrassing. I didn’t vote for him either time, but I’m still so ashamed to be here.

jameslowery88.bsky.social•16 hours ago

And yet, out of 650 MPs, every time he’s in the chamber, he gets called to speak.

msbluewednesday.bsky.social•16 hours ago

And in one of the smallest parties in Parl. he gets on our media incessantly 🙄

garethd.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Noticed that. It does seem a little odd that his is the voice we always seem to hear.

teawithflorence.bsky.social•5 minutes ago

I think that's the other way round, he's only in the chamber when he gets called to speak. Then he buggers off again

emmadm101.bsky.social•16 hours ago

he was spouting his drivel on LBC this morning ,probably from his constituency in the U.S.

frenchton.bsky.social•6 hours ago

When was Farage last in Moscow. It would appear as if he may have been compromised like Trump.

ajel-1954.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Fancy

benrattigan.com•16 hours ago

He’ll be on his 80th fag break.

colg.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Once he stood up and heard his own voice it was over for him.

bestforbritain.bsky.social•17 hours ago

(2/2)

lubottom.bsky.social•16 hours ago

“starting” to look like a pattern? It started before his election to the HoC. He got away with this for years as an MEP & kept getting rewarded for it.

msbluewednesday.bsky.social•16 hours ago

And his voters just don’t seem to care - I don’t get it 🤷🏻‍♀️

lubottom.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Somehow, he’s managed to convince people he’s on their side. It’s amazing.

oldmanrambling.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Trump managed the same trick with many more millions of gullible voters. We must not let this proto fascist do the same here, using Musk’s billions.

lubottom.bsky.social•14 hours ago

I wish I could say that I think we’re more perspicacious than that, but the polls suggest otherwise

beefair.bsky.social•3 hours ago

Because voting to curtail the rights of others, even if it means cutting off your own legs is far more important to them.. see #brexit

zenmousegreg.bsky.social•14 hours ago

I think a lot of Reform voters don't know or care what Parliament does. Even if they see Farage getting minced in a Commons debate, or read about his chronic absenteeism (and they generally don't), they don't make the connection that those events are Farage failing to represent them.

lubottom.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Yes, with both Trump and Farage there’s a degree of their voters being wilfully ignorant. They don’t want facts to knock them off of the hate merry-go-round. It’s easier to blame marginalised disempowered people than monolithic structures & the wealth class

cheryl1878.bsky.social•14 hours ago

They can’t read which is a huge issue

lubottom.bsky.social•13 hours ago

That gives them far too much credit.

martymcd.bsky.social•17 hours ago

He was called and asked a question

brad855.bsky.social•13 hours ago

There are only 3 words Reform voters understand:
Immigration
Borders
British
The Clacton Parasite is very good at pushing the right button for his faithful.
He NEVER takes the blame if the shit hits the fan, I.e. The Farage riots of last year.

debbielough.bsky.social•12 hours ago

That's how you get them though.

Spending time in the US instead of doing his job is unBritish.

Supporting Putin, who wants to do is harm is unBritish, and endangers outlr sovereignty.

jaguarjon53.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Farage is confused: he doesn't know which dick-tator to suck up to.... Traitor Trump or Pscho Putin...?

bsky-sam.bsky.social•14 hours ago

Luckily for him, there’s currently a 2-for-1 offer on that.

monrouge.bsky.social•14 hours ago

His constituents are probably the same types as Trump voters.

chaosladder13.bsky.social•13 hours ago

How dare you! It’s because he had to rush back to Clacton to do some important work for his constituents!

Only kidding!

Probably just off fox hunting or something.

rosiemog.bsky.social•13 hours ago

Perhaps uncle Nigel has gone to Clacton to do some good work for his constituents 🤔

Oh, sorry, what am I thinking He doesn’t even know where it is

cjsew.bsky.social•14 hours ago

loisemm.bsky.social•17 hours ago

He's being interviewed on Sky News!

jonnyholland.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Yes of course !! Just using being a MP for his own gain !! Just like his hero Trump and Trumps boss Putin !!

keaphtless.bsky.social•9 hours ago

I'm USA, and not too familiar with how y'all run things. But I do like the tradition y'all seemed to have developed for Queston Time over there. It seems to go along the lines of, "Yes. I do have a question. But first, let me take this opportunity to shit on Farage if I may."

Totally awesome.

draftsmann.bsky.social•17 hours ago

What he meant was, Macron would loathe HIM.

katieest1.bsky.social•2 hours ago

He only needs to turn up long enough to get his social media/GBeebies clip. Why bother stay longer.

torygatesauthor.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Check the pub? Nigel certainly does seem fond of a "pintabeer" or two.
